[hometext] => This is me thinking while walking.....
[bodytext] => Days after the incident The wound is still fresh Walking to my destination, I ponder About anything really Trying to find a way to make things seem better I run away from it Pretend like it never happened Trying to make things disappear The rain falls and lands gently upon my face I look up and smile The rain soothes me and reminds me that there is hope Even though I cant see it Even though I don’t believe it I know that it is there Somewhere People see me as I walk by Not knowing my inner struggle But if they knew Would they help?
